The State Administration of Radio, Film and TV announced that
villagers with electricity supply can now watch TV or listen to
radio.
94 percent of the Chinese people have access to TV or radio.
The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television announced
Monday that villagers in all villages with electricity supply can
now watch TV or listen to radio.
The administration attributes this success to a "village to
village" project launched in 1998 to solve the difficulties of
extending TV and radio into the country's poor western areas.
However, 80 million villagers still have no access to TV or
radio. The Chinese government promises to solve the problem by the
end of next year.
